"Do you believe anyone or anything is controlling your thoughts or behavior," inquired the psychiatrist. "No. I choose my behavior. However, it's with a damaged brain that is impulsive and irrational," the patient replied. "The honest truth is I don't know why I do the things I do." To some degree, I think most people … Continue reading 50 yard line prayer
The Future of extra-terrestrial life
I see at least two constants in biology.1. is death on an individual level, and the extinction of life as it was on a macrobiology level2. is the planting of new life that seeks to further the progress of adaptability towards the preservation of evolving and diverse consciousness. These two things seem to be inherent … Continue reading The Future of extra-terrestrial life
Legal underpinnings of constitutional Laws
We take the constitutional laws of our legal foundation way too seriously. The founders both had slaves and declared them to be mathematically 3/5th human. So basically, I, an agnostic, vowed to a God I don't believe in to defend a document that in original writing was rather inhumane. However the former made the whole … Continue reading Legal underpinnings of constitutional Laws
US internal Mass shootings and our response to Ukraine
You know how we're mad at the cops for not running into the classroom to kill the guy with an assault rifle using a handgun? I get it. I'm there. Putin has an armory of weapons including long-range NBC's, which he has yet to bring into play. However the bombs, missiles, and artillery he uses … Continue reading US internal Mass shootings and our response to Ukraine
Ideological false dichotomies of abortion and human value
Honestly? I think Roe vs Wade was always on a shaky legal foundation. A certain level of developmental brain activity on part of the fetus would make more sense as to where I would draw the line morally. It also strikes me that a government that commits acts that sickens my stomach, like torture, is … Continue reading Ideological false dichotomies of abortion and human value
Killing and Dying

Written a decade ago
Prelude from 10 years later: A lot has changed in 10 years. My son is a teenager. Most of the time I get along with my ex, though currently, we are at odds. I married a second wife, and now have 2 step kids who are of elementary age. I have this awesome pit bull … Continue reading Written a decade ago
Pravda
I'm not sure economic fines are an appropriate response for murder and torture. I also think that a man who threatens the end of humanity with nuclear bombs because he is losing his battle against humanity can't be dealt with in mere air support or even a full out proxy war. Perhaps he should be … Continue reading Pravda
PROGRESS AND CAREER ACTUALIZATION
I like The Economist. I find it surprising to a high degree that it's rather post-modern at times, with some of it being deliberate, and some it can be that the writer is often trying to describe an idea he's not fully grasping onto. To some degree, both the reader and writer come to appreciate … Continue reading PROGRESS AND CAREER ACTUALIZATION
tHE sELF aBSORBED sHIT i gO THROUGH
I'm inherently self centered, but it's not something I try to embrace. It's fucked up, honestly. Sometimes my resources needed applied to a cause that takes away from my self centered goals of lesser importance. I can even throw a fit when I realize the right thing to do is sacrifice for someone else's benefit. … Continue reading tHE sELF aBSORBED sHIT i gO THROUGH
